This chapel was built in 1830-1831 on the initiative of the knight Henri-Toussaint Fischbach, a Malmedy industrialist, in gratitude for the rescue of his father-in-law who was lost in the Fagne.

Until 1865, the residents of the Baraque Michel rang the chapel bell every evening to show stray people the way. As a result, around 120 people were saved in the 19th century. In 1885 the chapel was enlarged. Source: Wikipedia
